I can't think of a better place to plop my butt and relax. Food is really good and there is quite a variety from which to choose. My favs are the Fish & Chips, Buffalo Wings, and any of the Tacos. The draft beer is super cokd and all you can say upon first sip is Aaahhhhh! Music is whatever is on the pay to play box. TVs are many, seating is varied and tight, buyt you'll find no better view anywhere for the price! Any compkaints, just tell Richo!
Bunch of scalawags doing scalawag stuff. Surly staff and customers great place to cut loose...
Only 1 star because I can't put 0. FUCK THIS OVERPRICED BAR. The bartenders are fucking assholes don't go here.
Really nice place to have a drink and enjoy a beautiful sunset!!!!
